Belle Vernon Mayor Claims Fracking Waste Is Flowing Into The Monongahela River

BELLE VERNON, Pa. (KDKA) – A dispute is growing over fracking waste finding its way into the Monongahela River.
The state DEP says there is no proof, but the mayor of Belle Vernon say it’s just not true.
Every day, water with a grayish-white color flows from a creek into the Monongahela River near the 1-70 bridge in Belle Vernon. Mayor Gerald Jackson says it’s leachate or fracking waste from a the nearby Westmoreland landfill that’s in violation of a court order.
